📋 About This Mod
- It will work on both Male and Female V.
- In my testing everything is working fine except frag grenade, anti personal grenade, saika scope, prospecta scope.
- This mod disables shadow in photo mode as well. (This is because, while wearing shoes, V casted shadows of legs. So I had to disable the shadows of body parts, which in turn disabled shadows of those body parts in photo mode as well. So I disabled V's shadow completely in photo mode).
- While riding bikes V's shadow won't be there because, well...
- This mod edits a whole bunch of meshes, appearances, ent files of player's body, weapons, cyberware, etc. So except it to be incompatible with mods that edit those files. Use Archive Conflict Checker Tool to identify conflicts.
- I tested this mod thoroughly except a few scenarios. If you encounter any errors let me know in the comments. I will try to solve it as best as I can.
Note : I heard that my mod is currently not working with ray tracing and path tracing. As my gpu does not support ray traing and path tracing, I can't test with those settings. If anyone find a way to fix that please use my assets and make it available for ray tracing and path tracing shadows as well
To install, extract zip file to the installed game folder.
If you only want to disable the bugged cyber arms shadows, Use this mod
Disable Cyberarms Shadows In FPP at Cyberpunk 2077 Nexus - Mods and community (Don't use both of these mods at the same time. Use one or the other.)
Disables V's shadow in Cyberpunk 2077 for both male and female characters, including in photo mode and on bikes. Edits player meshes, appearances, and ent files to remove shadows from body, weapons, and cyberware. Known issues with certain grenades and scopes; no ray tracing support. For players annoyed by V's shadow, especially the leg shadow bug.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Completely removes V's shadow, fixing the annoying leg shadow when wearing shoes.
- Works for both male and female V, so no gender-specific limitations.
- Simple manual install: just extract to game folder.
⚠️ Cons
- Some items still cast shadows: frag grenade, anti-personnel grenade, Saika scope, Prospecta scope.
- No ray tracing or path tracing support, so V's shadow returns with those settings enabled.
- Edits many player files, so likely conflicts with other mods touching the same meshes/ent files.
For Cyberpunk 2077 players who are fed up with V's shadow, especially the leg shadow bug when wearing shoes. Good for photo mode users who want a clean shot without V's shadow. Skip if you use ray tracing or want to keep some shadows — this removes them all.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Extract the zip directly into your Cyberpunk 2077 installation folder (where the .exe is located).
- Use the Archive Conflict Checker Tool to see if other installed mods also edit player meshes or ent files.
- If you only want to remove cyberarm shadows, use 'Disable Cyberarms Shadows In FPP' instead, but don't use both.
